Larry I sure hope you hunting partner makes a full and speedy recovery. We live on a busy road and the first thing we did when we bought the house was to fence in the back yard. When the dogs go out to get in the truck they are always on a leash. A car/dog encounter isn't something I want to deal with.
In regards to breeds I have been fortunate to have been adopted by four very good GSP. I currently have two hunters with Gunner at 14 still haveing the heart but the hearing is about gone and Crazy Daisy who I'd put up against any dog. At the end of the day your not combing burrs out of them like you would a long haired dog. This may all change in a year or so as I have a friend with wonderfull English Setters and he is bound and determined that I'm getting a dog. It will be started and have a idea of whats going on is the only way I'd even consider it. We have four GSP now and three are over 11 and one is insulin dependent diabetic. The crowd will need to be reduced in number befor any new additions move in. |

Rich - There is a man near Grayling who has developed a line of grouse hunting GSP's. Mild, easy-going. Perfect for the foot hunter. PM me if you'd like to get his contact information. Doesn't always have pups, but has litters occasionally.

I just heard back from the vet and everything is looking good and I may be able to bring her home tonight. She is going to be one very sore dog for a while but with a little TLC she will be back in the field before long. Obviously measures will be taken so this dose not happen again. One night without a dog in the house is one night to many.

Larry, I don't envy you that call from Deb... it would certainly make my heart skip a beat.
Brooke is a wonderful Lab and I know what it would do to your family to lose her. Luck was on your (her) side this time and that's a very good thing. Best to you and Deb, Dean |
